master was engaged in the woodcarving since childhood and now devolves his
knowledge to children. At first it was his hobby but today it his work, reports

The technology teacher Kosherbay Kassymov is a repairperson: he can
construct dombra, kobyz, astau and many more. He opened the woodcarving
society, where he devolves his knowledge, in the Novoishimsk village.
Kosherbaev Kasymov, head of the society:
- My goal is to educate the younger generation
that they appreciated the art of ancestors that that kept the traditions for
centuries. I wish that they wouldcontinuethistradition.
During
his life, master has made a several hundred national instruments. They all
sound different. Students try not to miss a class, because every time they
learn something new.

Tayzhan, student of the Novoishimsk Kazakh School:
- In the future, I will be able to show the
kids what I did as a child, what kind of things I did. I want my future
children to do the same. We are trying to learn everything that our teacher
knows.
A
teacher knows much more, and so the plan of Kosherbay Kassymov is to open the
mini-workshop. He received a grant from the state and has already acquired
machines. Soon the production of the national instruments will be established
in the Novoishimsk village.
